Ah, Lost my Motorola HS-850 which worked fine with Voice Command, been going through a number of different units, the Jabra J10, Motorola H700 both great headsets except for the fact that they seem to mess up and stop working after a first phone call that started with Microsofts Voice Command. I think the problem is due to the fact that Voice Command doesn't close the bluetooth connection properly since the built in Voice Dialer seems to work.
Does anyone know if there is a versions of Voice Command (official or hacked) or any other way to get Voice Command to "behave more freiendly" with some of the Bluetooth headsets?
i got a jabra 250v and it works flawless heres what i do.. hit my button once and wait for the tone.. do w/e command i wanna do and let it go through then once the command is over with i hit the button again to close the connection so if u are doing a call this is the step i use.. push button once.. wait for tone.. say call erich. hit the button to finish call. wait 1sec then hit the button again to close the bluetooth connection ...works flawless for me
Jacob-mda: That what I used to do with my old Moto HS-850 and it worked perfectly.
Unfotunately this isn't the case with all bluetooth headsets, especially newer ones, I've gone through about 4 or 5. Voice Command doesn't break the connection since it doesn't support bluetooth directly and most of the newer headsets hang after the first call and the only way to get them back is to restart the device or run another program like cyberon speed dialer that resets the connection. Not sure why if it's a version difference in bluetooth implentation, or just some headsets are more forgiving.
Unless there is a way to get it working which I'm not aware of, we need some little utility that would do whatever cyberon speed dialer does to reset the connect and then launch Voice Command, this would make it work with a lot more (if not all) bluetooth headsets which would be great!
It's a shame, I'm caught up between deciding what I want more, a better headset and using cyberon speed dialer (with voice tags yuk) or going with a working headset with Voice Command.
Anyways, it would be great if someone could right something that would reset the connect and then launch voice command. It might not be perfect but I'm sure it would make a lot of people (including myself) with non compatible headsets very happy
no matter how I try to make it work, I cannot get voice dialing to work over my bluetooth headset. Anyone having this problem?

I think EVERYONE
the moment comes with nuance, is there any way to rip that out and add it to the hero?
For some reason, I find it easier to use the Voice Search app instead of the Voice Dialing app. If I say, "Call Dennis at Home" it works every time. BTW, I'm using a Jawbone Icon Rogue earpiece, which now supports A2DP. I do have to initiate the Voice Search by tapping the icon on the phone, though.
Bluetooth voice dialing
I would love to see one of the devs tackle this one. I have had true tap your BT device and voice dial since I started carrying a smartphone, UNTIL I switched to Android a few months ago.
Please devs, someone tackle this one. Even my old MotoQ with Winmo did it perfectly. I know you guys can do it better. Look how good Google Voice is with the keyboard and search now.
I have tried to get Nuance Voice from the Moment to work on the hero, and the phones are just too different and Nuance is to integrated to the moment. It works great though. Thats the ONLY good thing about that damn phone.
finally fixing blue tooth
Saw a recent post on phandroid that this will be fixed in android 2.2 (froyo)
And I quote:
" •Voice dialing over Bluetooth
•Ability to share contacts with other phones
•Support for Bluetooth enabled car and desk docks
•Improved compatibility matrix with car kits and headsets "
Ok, so coming from a Nokia N80, I'm used to holding down the call/answer button on my Jabra BT530 headset, the phone beeps and displays "speak now", i say the contacts name and it dials...
Trying the same thing on my Samsung Galaxy S has no effect???
Supposedly this phone and the BT530 support handsfree profile... so what gives?
I've also tried with a BlueAnt ST3 carkit... and when you push the call button, you just get this funny "bong" noise and nothing happens on the phone...
I went into the BT settings on the phone, and the only profiles it has listed against the BT530 are "phone" and "media"...
Does this mean I have to use the phone to initiate calls? I seriously hope not, as that is now illegal in NZ while driving (which is about the only time I actually use BT) and is liable to land me a $150 fine for using my phone while driving!!!
Unfortunately, its a limitation of Android up to 2.1 Eclair. Voice dialing by bluetooth only works in Android 2.2 Froyo builds which are starting to show up little by little. Until, your phone gets Froyo, you will not be able to dial by bluetooth.
Thanks for the clarification...
I was going mental thinking I had it working when I first got the SGS (ie. before I got "Odin-Flash Happy" ) and that I had "broken it" by using one of the "unofficial" firmwares...
I will be able to sleep tonight
Now I just need a nice stable 2.2 firmware to get leaker
Is this officially listed as a Froyo capability?
I find this seriously limiting, and even dangerous.
What about sending audio to a mono bluetooth headset? Will this be possible with Froyo?
I tried Super BT Mono, but it doesn't seem to work on the Galaxy S.
Thanks!
one tap on the BT headset main button
wait for beep beep
yell out the name (it always gets it wrong)
then it launches the confirmation window
select from (application, contact, phone, crap load of stuff)
then dial...
even though it works... it's not "automatical" enough
it's more like a voice search, than a voice dial
Anyone else get this after updating to 2.2 today, or ever?
When I try either Vlingo or Google Voice search over Bluetooth all I get is bad feedback. it's like the speaker on the phone or the mic is not being disabled.
Anyone else experience this? it's quite annoying.
I haven't tried vlingo or google voice but I have used the bluetooth dialing in 2.2 on JK3 and JK4 andit sucks even with one of the best quality headsets, Plantronics Voyager Pro, in semi noisy enviroments, driving a truck and van.
If the dialer doesn't just get the wrong name, sometimes it tries to take your voice input and create some bizzare digits to dial. At least when I used WM6 and Microsofts voice dialer it told you what it heard and then you could say no or cancel and it would stop. NOT this dialer. It'll just dial away whatever it thinks you said.
1 trick might be to make sure every number has a mobile and landline number, then at least it would ask you which to dial, at which point you could say cancel.
i'd be happy if it heard anythign. all I get is BAD feedback.
i reinstalled the app and will try again, but if it's happening with both google and vlingo reinstalling vlingo won't help.
I'll also try re-pairing...hopefully that's all that's needed.
Newly updated to EB13 and it running great except for my voice dialing over bluetooth doesn't seem to work. I connected everything alright and I even made a call over it with no problem, but when I hold the button down and release, I hear the "Say a command" (or w/e it is) and then a tone and get an error on the phone.
I have a plantronics headset that didn't have any problems doing BT voice dialing on previous phones I've owned. Is this an issue I may be able to fix with a reflash or is this a problem seen by anyone else?
Ditto!
Tried even a stock flash and can't get it to work. I have a Motorola Roadster and can't find a way to get it to work. Tried Choice Dial on mine, but it force closes. Frustrating!
same here!!!
yeah i also have had the same problem with not being able to use voice command over my bluetooth ..but i still can talk/hear pp while on the bluetooth device...i think its a bug in the eb13 update..i didnt have any problem when i was using the dk28 with bonsai or the new viper rom trinity 2.0 ...so again i say , its probley the eb13 update..i am sure the devs. will fix this soon in the future...just be patient and enjoy what you do have because some ppl are having even more problem then you are!!!! good luck and have fun!!
Me Too
Add me to the growing list of EB13 users having issues. My Motorola HF850 car kit will work once with voice command. After that it switches to phones speaker and mic which is not hands free. Pressing the talk button in the car brings up the voice command screen but it never switches. If I pick up the phone and talk to it, everything works fine.
The weird thing is my Jabra BT8010 works every time.
If anyone has ideas, I would be eternally thankful.
Same Here
No problem with BT using Stock (Samsung Installer)
All of the Deodexed Roms - VoiceDialer and BT don't play well together.
When I use it, it never understands what I say. I gave up on it. It is faster to just find the numbers in contacts. I use blueant t1.

VoiceDial with Bluetooth EB13
I can confirm that I had BT voicedial issues when using either deodexed flash version. As soon as I pushed the .tar file with Odin, my issues stopped.
The issue was BT would connect, ask me to start speaking and then error out with "goodbye" and Headset disconnected message.
Again...with odin method, all seems OK.
Epic Stock EB13 (unrooted for now)
Motorola H790 BT
This appears to be entirely related to deodexed roms not eb13 itself. I believe there is a tool that will re-odex a rom, anyone tried to see if that fixes this?

Ditto with Motorola Rokr.
BT voice dialing
Like others, I have NO BT voice dial with a deoxed version of EB13 and EXT4 as the file system. I can get it to pair just fine and reconnect, just no BT voice dialing (hum noise and disconnect). A fix would be greatly appreciated!
FYI - If I use the Samsung .exe updater for a stock (clean) install of EB13 with RFS all my headsets (3 of em) work just fine with BT dialing and pairing. No issues...
bluetooth
i have flashed the eb13 froyo onto my epic with the eb13 supernova,genocide .3a kernal and everything seems to be almost perfect except i still can not give voice commands over my bluetooth ....it will activate, say speak now and then it will disconnect before i can even give a command...if there is a fix for this please let me know...thanks

My voice dial works to dial phones, but other voice commands such as "Play" to play music do not--reverts to dialer. Plantronics backbeat 903
Someone else try this too?
I re-flashed to stock and decided to give it a try again. Re-paired my phone with the car. Still not working. I manually pressed the voice dial on the phone (i don't know why) from the menu and it played thru the car speakers??? From that point on, it worked until I disconnected it from the car. Got back into the car, phone connected to car, not working. Manually pressed voice dial again...it started working and worked again until I left the car.
Someone want to give this a try too...I could be imagining it.
